The Invisible Mogul -
Chapter 554
“...Oh yeah. So Sharon, why are you looking for a job now? What about Hayward?” asked Gerald. Though he used to have a crush on her, he no
longer had any feelings for her.
“Ah, well, after Hayward found out that you’re Mr. Crawford, he was so shocked that he refused to leave his house for days. Besides, he knew about
our past relationship, so...”
Sharon stopped there and simply left her sentence hanging.
“...Ah, so Sharon’s looking for a job partially because of me!’ Gerald thought to himself.
Gerald then flashed an awkward smile before saying, “But you know, I’m still truly flattered, haha! Remember back in high school? The best birthday
I’ve ever had then was in the canteen!”
Hearing that, both Sharon and Xella began reminiscing. During high school, almost everyone refused to hang out with Gerald, and his birthday didn’t
change that fact.
His birthday that year had been on result day, and everyone had to go back to high school during the holidays to get their certificates. It was Xella and
Sharon who had suggested that they celebrate Gerald’s birthday in the canteen. They wanted to celebrate it with him before he joined the military.
The two girls, along with Lilian, had bought a large cake for Gerald back then. Lilian was there since she was close to Sharon and though she was
slightly hesitant at first, she still ended up celebrating his birthday with him anyway.
That was the first time Gerald ever had cake, and he felt extremely touched. That was the moment when he decided to stay friends with them for
eternity.
Now, however, he realized how one-sided that decision had been
When university started, he continued staying in touch with both Xella and Sharon. Eventually, however, both of them started ghosting him. They
didn’t bother to even reply to any of his texts.
Two years later, Gerald was excited when he bumped into Sharon in Mayberry. Sharon had to admit that since he was still so friendly and talkative,
he clearly valued their friendship very much even after so much time had passed.
However, Sharon had felt embarrassed being around him, so she avoided him at all costs. She even insulted him multiple times! There were times
when she went overboard as well, resulting in him getting physically hurt.

Despite all that, Gerald continued to help her on multiple occasions and he didn’t even hold any grudges against her. She had taken advantage of
that, which led to Gerald getting hurt even more. This was why Gerald eventually started giving her the cold shoulder.
As for Xella, she had looked down on him from the moment they bumped into each other again after so many years. She had been slightly
embarrassed when they met, so she only had a polite conversation with him, even cracking a few light jokes here and there.
However, Gerald still thought that she valued their friendship just as much as he did back then. They were even supposed to go to the class reunion
together! However, she went with Waylon instead which resulted in her feeling uncomfortable for most of that day.
Waylon had bullied Gerald a lot back in high school. Gerald simply never stood up for himself. There was even a time when Waylon threw a chair at
Gerald which sent him flying to the back of the class. He was without a doubt, Gerald’s arch enemy.
Despite being aware of that, Xella still ended up getting close to him. Gerald had been incredibly hurt after finding out about that.
Now that the two girls realized that Gerald was the actual Mr. Crawford from Mayberry, they couldn’t help but regret their actions. Both of them
thought that he was no longer the Gerald they knew, when in reality, Gerald had never changed. They were the ones who had changed.
